Schwalbe One Tubeless

Impressive tyre and if these are the easy one's to fit then I'm not trying the hard version

Hate flat's and run tubular tufoS33 pro's all year with sealant on my superstar rims, Converting my carbon rims to tubeless makes the bike look faster already!!

they ride nice and I like the idea of no blow outs, The burway downhill killed a tube after the brakes over heated the rim, scary so hope next visit this is the CURE.

nice review  

Despite the fact that some people are apparently blessed enough never to get punctures, there's clearly a market for better puncture protection without hurting ride quality or performance. I like wide tubeless tyres because it gives me the freedom to ride on some of the rougher stuff that I'd just not risk with clinchers. That being the case, these are not the tyres for me. I've been running a Sector 28 up front with no problems and the 28 version of this on the rear with multiple punctures, one of which blew out a quite spectacular cloud of latex as I was trundling down the high street. The tyre on inspection has multiple gashes in the rubber and although it did reseal in the end, it doesn't look safe. Not necessarily a bad tyre -  perhaps it's because I'm rougher on these than the manufacturer intended, so next up I'll try the Schwalbe s-one in a 30. 

I have ordered the One Pro in 28mm to see how they perform compared to my 25mm One version. The Pro 28mm is lighter than the old 25mm version. Just to see how they feel and roll will be interesting

After a year on tubeless, I'm going back to clinchers with inner tube. I didn't see any benefits from using tubeless. Clinchers are tried and tested teshnology with wast choice of easy swappable tyres. Clinchers will give me peace of mind in knowing that I will be able to repair them (in 99% of cases) and carry on.

I've been running these tyres in 23 and 25mm versions for the last 18months.

I've races, trained and mucked about on them for 16000km. 0 punctures that didn't seal within 5 seconds or so.

I lost one tyre to a big cut from broken glass, it was about 15mm long and I don't think any tyre would have survived.

I won't ever go back to tubes.

I have run Continental 4 seasons 28mm with inner tubes at 90 psi front 95 psi back for 4 years over badly maintained roads, covering abt 5000 km (weekends only). Zero punctures. Very little wear. I am now swapping them out for Continental GP 28 mm, just for a change. Tubeless? Yes! The technology will eventually displace innner tubes and make it possible to ride lightweight adventure bikes with thru-axles and 40mm tires at 50? psi on gravel, 80 psi on tarmac.

I've now done 50 miles on these exact tyres and can give a subjective view on their 'feel'. I run Conti Grand Prix GT on my other bike and the difference is noticable.

The One is an extremely fast tyre, rolling resistance is amazing. The difference is that you CAN feel the thicker rubber. If I had to describe the top Conti's as having a 'creamy' smoothness to the ride, I'd describe the smoothness of the Ones as 'rubbery' smoothness.

Both very fast tyres but the Ones feel faster but 'rubberier'. A subjective view certainly but quite accurate I feel.

I run these babies and am very happy with them, comfort, speed and puncture wise.

One of the advantages of tubeless is that they can be run at lower pressures but, I have found, if using at say anything between 80 & 90 psi (I am 71kg), the rear really feels like it is going to come off the rim when stomping up short climbs.

I haven't actually had the tyre come off but now run the tyre at above 100psi if I am going to be pushing hard and it feels a lot better in that respect although a harsher ride in general.

Please can you change the weight info from 205g - 340g to 305g - 385g
Weights for tubeless Schwalbe ONE, from 2 of their websites:
23mm - 305g
25mm - 340g
28mm - 385g

Interestingly, my new Hunt wheels pre-fitted with these tyres arrived a couple of days ago. So far I'm very impressed, they're fast and grippy and the thought that I'm a lot less likely to suffer a hawthorn induced puncture is always pleasantly at the back of my mind.

Of Rix's question above, I'd go for option 1.

Here is a real world scenario... Yesterday race was held partially on dirt road where I hit a large stone at 45 kmh. I got "snake bite" puncture, two 5mm holes on inner tube, and tire (Scwalbe One 28mm clincher) had two small holes on one side. It took me 10 min to swap inner tube and continue race.

What is most likely outcome if I had raced on my 25 mm tubeless One's?

a) I would not get puncture because tubeless tire is thicker.
b) I would get puncture but sealant would seal the hole.
c) I would get puncture and need to add more sealant and air to the tire for it to seal properly.
d) It would not seal because the hole is too big.
e) It would not seal because there are two holes and it is impossible to position wheel so that sealant flows to both of them.

I could not find any articles describing One's puncturing.

Any experiences? Suggestions?

Irc roadlite tubeless seem much better than ONE.....

Just can't get hold of a pair, might try and pick some up in Japan this summer

Rode the Somerset 100 last Sunday on the 25mm version of these tyres and thought they were super-plush and super-fast. Had no trouble whatsoever fitting them by hand on some new £200 wheels built in Nottingham by Raleigh ( Alex 'tubeless' rims on Chosen hubs ) using 21mm Stans tape and Slime Pro sealant. I ran them both at 95psi but given the recommendations here I'll experiment with lower pressures. I suspect after a few years we'll wonder how we ever did it different.

I don't ride near any flinty areas, nor are there many thorny hedges. I do ride a fair bit on Northern streets with their usual Saturday morning broken glass. I religiously carry two tubes, a CO2 canister and a mini pump to ward off evil spirits though.

Our cattle grids are taken at 5mph or at 45mph; on t'moors...

This is the key:
"Properly inflated tyres, not running them down to the carcass, and above all, looking where you are riding, ie, not in the gutter will see you right."

I'm not that sure that pinch flats are an issue on a road bike; I've had 2 in 25 years because I rode through a puddle without looking. Punctures? maybe 1 a year in a bad year.

Properly inflated tyres, not running them down to the carcass, and above all, looking where you are riding, ie, not in the gutter will see you right.

The performance advantages seem over-rated, so I'll not be a faffing.

Never happened to me either, I think it might be one of those urban myths that cyclists use to justify buying something else.

All this talk of inner tube blowouts and frequently buying replacements, why does that not happen to me?

It makes me wonder whether tubeless tyre technology some kind of solution looking for a problem.

I'm running the 28c version. About £50 the pair from Germany. Topped up with Stan's sealant. On Pacenti SL25 rims. Excellent. Super comfy and very fast. Very happy indeed with them.

I run tubeless on my mtn bike and they are easy to fit but road tubless (ultegra + hutchinson fusion) has been a total nightmare so unless you are very competent and strong suggest you get your local bike shop to set them up.

I do love them on the road bike but just be prepared for some upfront investment in terms of time / tyre levers / blisters etc.

I wonder if anyone has had experience with these expensive (~100$) Japanese tubeless IRC Formula PRO TUBELESS RBCC

They look very good... "on paper"
